When you draw the vav of the chet say, "understood" or "saw".
The chet is drawn like a he ה but the vav on the left returns all the way to the top. This represents that the commandment was understood. The meaning of chet is 'dismay', because when you really understand God's command, you are dismayed.
[v 1][q 1][a 1][q 2][a 2][1]
Dismay is terror. When people met the Holy God they fell on their faces.
